The Evolution of Crayfishes of the Genus Orconectes Section Limosus (Crustacea: Decopoda)
THE OHIO JOURNAL OF SCIENCE Vol. 62 MARCH, 1962 No. 2 THE EVOLUTION OF CRAYFISHES OF THE GENUS ORCONECTES SECTION LIMOSUS (CRUSTACEA: DECOPODA) RENDELL RHOADES Department of Zoology and Entomology, The Ohio State University, Columbus 10 The earliest described crayfish species now included in the Section limosus of the Genus Orconectes was described by Samuel Constantine Rafinesque (1817: 42). He reported the species, which he named Astacus limosus, "in the muddy banks of the Delaware, near Philadelphia." How ironical it now seems, that when Rafinesque located at Transylvania three years later and traveled to Henderson, Kentucky, to visit a fellow naturalist, John J. Audubon, he could have collected from the streams of western Kentucky a crayfish that he might have identified as the species he had described from the Delaware. We now know that these streams of the knobstone and pennyroyal uplands are the home of parent stock of this group. Moreover, this parental population on the Cumberland Plateau is now separated from Rafinesque's Orconectes limosus of the Atlantic drainage by more than 500 miles of mountainous terrain. Even Rafinesque, with his flair for accuracy and vivid imagination, would have been taxed to explain this wide separation had he known it. A decade after the death of Rafinesque, Dr. W. T. Craige received a blind crayfish from Mammoth Cave. An announcement of the new crayfish, identi- fied as "Astacus bartonii (?)" appeared in the Proceedings of the Academy of Natural Science of Philadelphia (1842: 174-175). Within two years the impact of Dr. Craige's announcement was evidenced by numerous popular articles both here and abroad. -
The Marbled Crayfish (Decapoda: Cambaridae) Represents an Independent New Species
Zootaxa 4363 (4): 544–552 ISSN 1175-5326 (print edition) http://www.mapress.com/j/zt/ Article ZOOTAXA Copyright © 2017 Magnolia Press ISSN 1175-5334 (online edition) https://doi.org/10.11646/zootaxa.4363.4.6 http://zoobank.org/urn:lsid:zoobank.org:pub:179512DA-1943-4F8E-931B-4D14D2EF91D2 The marbled crayfish (Decapoda: Cambaridae) represents an independent new species FRANK LYKO 1Division of Epigenetics, DKFZ-ZMBH Alliance, German Cancer Research Center, 69120 Heidelberg, Germany Correspondence: Deutsches Krebsforschungszentrum Im Neuenheimer Feld 580 69120 Heidelberg, Germany phone: +49-6221-423800 fax: +49-6221-423802 E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Marbled crayfish are a globally expanding population of parthenogenetically reproducing freshwater decapods. They are closely related to the sexually reproducing slough crayfish, Procambarus fallax, which is native to the southeastern United States. Previous studies have shown that marbled crayfish are morphologically very similar to P. fallax. However, different fitness traits, reproductive incompatibility and substantial genetic differences suggest that the marbled crayfish should be considered an independent species. This article provides its formal description and scientific name, Procambarus virgin- alis sp. nov. Key words: parthenogenesis, annulus ventralis, genetic analysis, mitochondrial DNA Introduction Marbled crayfish were first described in 2001 as the only known obligatory parthenogen among the approximately 15,000 decapod crustaceans (Scholtz et al., 2003). The animals were first described in the German aquarium trade in the late 1990s (Scholtz et al., 2003) and became widely distributed in subsequent years under their German name "Marmorkrebs". Stable populations have developed from anthropogenic releases in various countries including Madagascar, Germany, Czech Republic, Hungary, Croatia and Ukraine (Chucholl et al., 2012; Jones et al., 2009; Kawai et al., 2009; Liptak et al., 2016; Lokkos et al., 2016; Novitsky & Son, 2016; Patoka et al., 2016). -
Marbled Crayfish (Marmokrebs) Control in Ohio
OHIO DIVISION OF WILDLIFE Marbled Crayfish (Marmokrebs) Control in Ohio Injurious Aquatic Invasive Species (IAIS) are animals that cause or are likely to cause damage or harm to native ecosystems or to commercial, agricultural, or recreational activities that are dependent on these ecosystems. The Ohio Department of Natural Resources, Division of Wildlife has the authority to establish an active list of Ohio IAIS high-risk species through a risk-analysis process to evaluate non-native candidate species via Ohio Administrative Code 1501:31-19-01. Listed species are unlawful to possess, import, or sell unless dead and/or preserved. Prevention: Risk Reduction State and federal partners are working to eliminate the risk of invasive Marbled Crayfish (also known as Marmokrebs) by preventing this Ohio-listed IAIS from public possession and sales in Ohio and to prevent their introduction and spread in Ohio waters and fish culture facilities. Background Marbled Crayfish (Marmokrebs) • Adult size – 10 to 13 cm (4 to 6 inches). Procambarus fallax f. virginalis • Grow and mature rapidly in captivity. • Not native to Ohio, Great Lakes or Ohio River watersheds. • Not known to occur in the wild, except through accidental or purposeful release. • Mostly a cultured species in the North American and European pet trade. “Marmokrebs” is its European common name. An all-female species, it reproduces asexually through parthenogenesis. • Closely related to the slough crayfish, Procambarus fallax, native to Florida and southern Georgia. Current Status, Management, Control and Exclusion in Ohio • Marbled crayfish have been defined as a high-risk IAIS in Ohio as they are non-native, adult females have a high reproductive capacity, and they can displace native crayfish. -

Rapid Range Expansion of Rusty Crayfish Orconectes Rusticus (Girard, 1852) in the John Day River, Oregon, USA

In the five years since then, the known range of Orconectes rusticus has more than doubled to 145 river km along the mainstem of the river and populations have achieved high densities in several locations. To arrive at this estimate, the present study employed commercial crayfish traps, D-frame kick nets, and snorkel surveys to assess crayfish communities in the upper John Day basin. Natural dispersal, multiple introductions, a more thorough survey of the study area, or a combination of these factors could account for the expansion of the known distribution O. rusticus within the basin. The limit of O. rusticus expansion in the John Day River and broader Columbia River Basin, and the likely consequences for invaded ecosystems remain to be resolved. -

Licensed under CC BY-NC 2.0. 1 Native Range, and Status in the United States Native Range From Adams et al. (2010): “Canada (Ontario, Québec); United States (Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Vermont, Wisconsin)” Status in the United States From NatureServe (2015): “This species is wide ranging and common. It has historically been abundant and widespread. It is however being outcompeted and replaced by the invasive crayfish species Orconectes rusticus in certain parts of its range, including Ohio, Illinois, Wisconsin, Massachusetts, Vermont, Ontario, Quebec and Iowa.” “Introduced populations were discovered in 2010 in Monument Reservoir and nearby North Lake, Las Animas Co., Colorado (C. Taylor, pers. comm., August 2010).” From Hobbs et al. (1989): “Magnuson et al. (1975) indicated that O. propinquus also is abundant in many lakes in northern Wisconsin. … The current presence also of O. propinquus there probably represents introductions rather than a natural invasion.” Means of Introductions in the United States From Capelli and Munjal (1982): “Nothing is known for certain of colonization mechanisms, but introduction by humans, most likely from use as fish bait, is strongly suspected. See Capelli, 1975.” Remarks From Adams et al. (2010): “By far the biggest threat to this species is the invasive crayfish Orconectes rusticus, which has replaced this species in parts of its range and taken it over as the dominant crayfish species in other locations (Olden et al. -
